Hi,
I am looking to replace my elderly mothers mobile phone as see says the buttons are too small.
Need a basic phone with big buttons & SMS so 2G would probaby do (See in on AMAYSIM)
Rarely uses the phone but we want her to have it for security.
Thanks
Colin
Telstra Easycall 2. or Easycall 3 (new version)
http://www.ebay.com.au/bhp/telstra-easycall-2
Same features as the above mentioned Oricom.
Dedicated emergency contact switch (calls and SMS capable)
Flashlight switch. Flashlight doesn't require phone to be turned on.
FM Radio switch
Talks out phone numbers when dialling.
Does 850mhz 3G band, but is mostly used as a 2G phone (can't access internet anyway).
The Doro brand phones are designed for the elderly, and this one is less than half its price on eBay see http://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/116468
Sweet gift for mother!
Hi Colin,
I'm a big fan of Oricom mobiles as they have big buttons, large numbers on-screen and you can set up a button for Emergency contact number (if req).
This unit http://www.oricom.com.au/ezy120-gsm-big-button-mobile-phone.… also includes a Easy desktop charging cradle that allows you to dock the phone so it is always in the right place and charged.
I have an earlier model to this one, but I'd certainly recommend for ease of use.
To dial you just put the number in and hit the green button, to hang up you hit the Red Button.
To answer you hit the Green Button. Easy as.
